My kind of movie. Seriously, where has this been all my life. However I don't know if I would of got this as a kid as much as I do as an adult. Basically John Goodman is William Castle, (based off him) the filmmaker responsible for his gimmicks.

Something I think is missing in modern cinema. Apart from Goodman's character, the movie's a coming-of-age story. Just a safe, fun flick by one of my favorites, Joe Dante. I want to be John Goodman's character!
